About this product

Product Information

An illuminating collection of essays from the preeminent scholar of architectural history and theory One of the most distinguished scholars in the fields of architectural history and theory today, James Sloss Ackerman is best known for his work on Italian masters such as Palladio and Michelangelo. In this collection of essays, Ackerman offers insight into his formation and development as a scholar, as well as reflections on a range of topics. Concise, lucid, and original, this book presents deep syntheses alongside innovative approaches and a broadening geographical and chronological reach. Ackerman's enduring fascination with architecture was one unforeseen consequence of his military service in World War II, and the collection includes a revealing account of his part in the liberation of Milan as a soldier in the Fifth American Regiment. These essays represent a unique, personal journey--from the Italian Renaissance to the classical architecture of India and the work of Frank Gehry at the new museum of the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris.

Reviews
"As he approaches his century - he was born in 1919 - it is a pleasure to welcome  Jame Ackerman's collection of eight essays and to note that he is as inquisitive, as lively and as wide-ranging as he ever was."--Joseph Rkywert, Art Newspaper  , "All scholars should aspire to write a book like this one. Ackerman (emer., Harvard), who published his first book in 1947, has been read and studied by generations of students . . . [And] like the artists and authors he has studied, Ackerman provokes thought."-- CHOICE
